ZDNet shortlisted twice in industry awards
ZDNet has been shortlisted twice in the AOP 2007 awards. The organisers, the Association of Online Publishers, say they received 320 entries overall this year - some 50 percent up on last year - so it's a great achievement for the site to be recognised twice in this way.
We're the only tech website to be shortlisted for business website of the year, and one of two tech websites (alongside our sister title silicon.com, which could make for an interesting evening) nominated for editorial team of the year.
When the judges were looking at the site they would have seen our community pages and all the submissions made by you, so a big thanks to every ZDNet member who has posted a blog entry or a comment to a blog entry, a Talkback to a story, a forum post or a review and helped make this the lively site that it is.
Even if we don't win on the night, it's nice to be recognised.
